Kurapika is a character characterized by his blonde hair and androgynous features. He is a survivor of the Kurta Clan, a race whose eyes turn scarlet when emotionally aroused. After his comrades were killed by the Phantom Troupe, one of the world's most notorious bands of thieves, Kurapika vowed to take revenge and became a Hunter. Although he is a manipulation-type Nen user, when he has the Scarlet Eyes he possesses an ability called Emperor Time, which allows him to use all Nen abilities at 100%. While he is usually calm and reserved, when it comes to the Phantom Troupe and spiders he becomes reckless and is dangerous, willing to sacrifice everything to take action. Since becoming a Hunter, he has also been active as a mafia member, and is targeting the Fourth Prince, the last holder of the Scarlet Eyes.
